Individual Details

Abel ADAMSON

(1808 - Aft 7 Aug 1833)



Abel married Sarah Stout, 12 Feb 1828. I doubt that he died on the same day as his sister Susannah on 11 Aug 1840 - likely one of these is wrong. His will was written in 1833 and he probably died sometime afterwards. The Wayne Co Will Book did not give a probate date.
